Abstract: In this study, a range of barley allelic mutants lost ADPG binding structure of starch synthase IIa (SSIIa) were created through targeted mutagenesis of SSIIa by RNA-guided Cas9. The transcriptomic and qRT-PCR results showed the… read more here.

Abstract: The gelatinization temperature (GT) of endosperm starch influences rice eating and the cooking quality (ECQ). ALK encoding soluble starch synthase IIa (SSIIa) is the major gene determining grain GT in rice. Herein, we identified a… read more here.

Abstract: Glutinous rice accumulates amylose-free starch and is utilized for rice cakes and crackers, owing to the loss of the Waxy gene which encodes granule-bound starch synthase I (GBSSI). Starch synthase IIa (SSIIa) elongates amylopectin chains… read more here.
